A Story to Make You Smile

Cranberry Dental Studio hosted a giveaway to gift an essential worker with a full smile makeover this past year. We were fortunate enough to help promote an exciting opportunity and document the process for one lucky winner!

After years of anxiety and confidence lost due to a past injury that affected her smile, the doctors at Cranberry Dental knew Trish was a perfect fit. Her nerves were quickly calmed upon arriving at Cranberry Dental Studio and being in the hands of the best. Now months later, Trish speaks on her new outlook on life and wears her smile with confidence. Take a peek of her transformation here!

Why Your Sales Team Cannot Afford to Ignore LinkedIn.

If your business is not actively utilizing LinkedIn, you’re missing out on a significant opportunity. 

When you miss out on a potential sales channel, your competition will take advantage. They carve out a niche, and you lose out. And that’s exactly why your sales team cannot afford to ignore LinkedIn. Yes, it’s another channel. But, it’s not just another channel. When used correctly, LinkedIn might just become THE channel for you.


First Things First: What Is LinkedIn?
Chances are you’ve heard of LinkedIn. The platform is one of the largest social media networks in the world, with almost 600 million users worldwide. What makes this channel so relevant, though, is its audience. The average LinkedIn user is between 30 and 64 years old, college educated, and works in a white collar profession. Does that sound like part of your target audience?


It gets better: 61 million users are senior level influencers, and 40 million are decision makers at the C-Suite level.
Among Fortune 500 companies, LinkedIn is the single most popular social network. On a daily basis, these users interact in groups, share status updates, and update their profiles. They post 100,000 long-form posts per week. And of course, they interact with each other, from comments to personal InMail messages that range from professional advice to networking.


Lots of statistics to digest, but they all come down to one truth: LinkedIn, thanks to its user demographics and behavior, is a perfect playground for sales teams looking to make a mark and reach their customers.
